Hereinafter, each component in the dental adhesive composition of the present disclosure is described in detail. A dental adhesive composition of the present disclosure can be applied to a dental adhesive material, a dental composite resin, a dental core build-up material, a dental resin cement, a dental coating material, a dental sealant material, a dental manicure material, a dental splinting material and a dental glass ionomer cement.

In a dental practice, in order to restore aesthetically and functionally a lost portion of a tooth by caries, breakages and the like, a direct restoration by a dental composite resin and an indirect restoration by a prosthetic device consisting of ceramics or hard resin by using a dental resin cement have been performed as treatment. A dental adhesive material has been used for adhering a dental composite resin to various dental materials and natural tooth. In addition, a dental adhesive material has been used for adhering a dental splinting material for fixing a mobile tooth, a dental coating material for protect a vital tooth after forming, against a hyperesthesia, an external stimulation and secondary caries, a dental sealant material for preventing caries by filling complex grooves such as especially a deciduous tooth, a dental manicure material for temporary recovering aesthetic property by masking discoloration of a tooth, a dental core build-up material for forming an abutment tooth in the case of collapsing of a dental crown due to caries, and the like.

As a dental adhesive, a self-etching primer containing water and an acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer has been proposed in order to achieve both an enamel decalcification function and a dentin penetration promoting function. Such a composition has an advantage that the operation is simplified because the etching operation before applying the primer is not required. On the other hand, when the acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer and water coexist in the same package, the acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer is hydrolyzed when stored for a long period of time, therefore there has been a disadvantage that the adhesive strength to the adherend decreases.

Therefore, a composition in which an acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer, water and a basic compound coexist has been proposed. In such a composition, the acidity is neutralized by forming a salt between the acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer and the basic compound, so that the storage stability is improved. However, since basic inorganic compounds and tertiary aliphatic amine compounds that are usually used form strong salts with acidic group-containing polymerizable monomers, there is a problem in that the adhesive strength is lowered.

In order to solve the above problem, the present inventors have been found that the dental adhesive composition of the present disclosure realizes both excellent storage stability and excellent adhesive strength when an aliphatic tertiary amine having a specific structure is used, and have completed the present disclosure.

Further, the present inventors have been found that when the dental adhesive composition of the present disclosure and the dental photocurable composition containing a photoacid generator are adhered, further excellent adhesive strength is exhibited.

The dental adhesive composition of the present disclosure can be applied as a dental adhesive material, a dental coating material and a dental manicure material, and further can be used as a kit in combination with a dental adhesive material, a dental composite resin, a dental core build-up material, a dental resin cement, a dental coating material, a dental sealant material, a dental manicure material, a dental splinting material, a dental hard resin, a dental cutting and machining material or a dental 3D printer material which are dental curable compositions.

The structure of an anion portion of the iodonium salt-based compound is not particularly limited, and examples include those having atoms such as P, S, B, Al and Ga. From the viewpoint of safety, anions having As or Sb can be used, but they are not preferable in dental applications. Further, the anion preferably has an organic group such as an alkyl group and/or an alkoxy group and/or an aryl group, and further, most preferably has an organic group such as an alkyl group and/or an alkoxy group and/or an aryl group, in which at least one H is substituted with F. Since the iodonium salt-based compound having such an anion has high solubility in the dental adhesive composition, it is expected to preventing precipitation during low-temperature storage or long-term storage and to shorten the time for preparing due to dissolving in the composition in a short time.

Further, an iodonium salt-based compound of an anion having an organic group such as an alkyl group and/or an alkoxy group and/or an aryl group, in which at least one H is substituted with F can be expected to have higher solubility.

Since the anionic part of [A]⁻ of the iodonium salt-based compound of the formula (1) improves the solubility to the composition, it is preferable that the anion has an alkyl group and/or alkoxy group and/or aryl group, in which at least one H is substituted with F.

The electron-withdrawing group in R₁ may be a substituent selected from a functional group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a vinyl group, an aryl group and a halogen, and, an organic group which is bonded via an ether bond, an ester bond, a urethane bond or a urea bond and may have —OH group, —O-group, —C(O)-group, —S-group, —NH—C(O)—NH-group, —C(O)—O-group, —O—C(O)-group, —OC(O)—NH-group, —NH—C(O)—O-group, an aromatic hydrocarbon group, or a polymerizable functional group capable of radical polymerization.

Conventionally, an aliphatic tertiary amine such as dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate or triethanolamine have been compounded to the dental adhesive composition for the purpose of promoting photopolymerization, improving solubility and improving storage stability. However, when the above-mentioned conventional aliphatic tertiary amine and (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group are compounded in a dental adhesive composition, there is a case that it is confirmed that the adhesive property with respect to a tooth substance and a prosthetic device is reduced after long-term storage. As a result of study by the present inventors, it has been found that good adhesive property with respect to a tooth substance and a prosthetic device can be maintained even when stored for a long period of time by using the (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound represented by formula (1) having an electron-withdrawing group and steric hindrance as compared with the conventionally used tertiary aliphatic amine compound. Further, the present inventors have been found that there is a case in which the (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound represented by formula (1) exhibits the curing accelerating ability and therefore exhibits good adhesive property and mechanical property in the case of containing (B) photosensitizer and/or (C) photoacid generator in the dental adhesive composition or in the case of using a dental adhesive composition in combination with a dental curable composition containing (B) photosensitizer and/or (C) photoacid generator, and have completed the present disclosure.

Preferable is a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, an aryl group and an organic group having an ether bond, an ester bond, a urethane bond or a urea bond. More preferable is an aryl group, a carboxyl group and an organic group having an ester bond or a urethane bond because steric hindrance is large or high electron attraction is expected. Furthermore preferable is a tertiary aliphatic amine compound in which the amino group is disubstituted or more with an aryl group which may have a substituent.

When R₂ and R₃ have an electron-withdrawing group, the electron-withdrawing group may be a functional group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a vinyl group, an aryl group and a halogen, and, an organic group which is bonded via an ether bond, an ester bond, a urethane bond or a urea bond.

<One Pack Type Dental Adhesive Composition>

When the present disclosure is used in one pack type dental adhesive composition, it is preferably used for a dental bonding material, a dental primer and a dental coating material. In the case of one pack type dental adhesive composition, since complicated steps such as mixing are not required before use, reduction of technical errors and reduction of burden on the operator can be expected.

Curing proceeds without light irradiation such as glass ionomer reaction or redox reaction. Since the two packs type dental adhesive composition cures without light irradiation, it is suitable for use in a deep cavity where light is difficult to reach, and further, it is expected that high adhesive strength is exhibited by performing light irradiation.

Among them, in particular, it is used as a two-step type dental bonding material combined with a dental adhesive material, or a dental adhesive kit in which it combined with a dental composite resin, a dental core build-up material, a dental resin cement or a glass ionomer cement. It is preferable that the dental curable composition contains (A) polymerizable monomer and a polymerization initiator as an essential component, and (E) filler. The polymerization initiator is classified into a photopolymerization initiator and a chemical polymerization initiator, and may contain either one or both of them. In particular, when the dental curable composition contains (B) photosensitizer and (C) photoacid generator as a photopolymerization initiator, high adhesive strength and improvement in mechanical properties can be expected in the case of combining with the dental adhesive composition containing (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound represented by formula (1) of the present disclosure.

<Preparing Method of Two Packs Type Dental Adhesive Composition>

Components of first pack shown in Tables 3 to 5 were put into a wide mouthed plastic container and mixed by using a mix rotor VMRC-5 under light-shielding condition at 100 rpm for 48 hours. Similarly, components of second pack were put into a wide mouthed plastic container and mixed by using a mix rotor VMRC-5 under light-shielding condition at 100 rpm for 48 hours. The first pack and the second pack were filled in different light-shielding bottles to prepare a dental adhesive composition of each composition Q and each composition CQ. Each composition Q and each composition CQ were used after mixing in a weight ratio of 0.8 to 1.2:1.0 before use. In the Tables 3 to 5, the content (parts by mass) of each component is indicated by the numerical value in parentheses after the abbreviation of each component.

<Preparing Method of Dental Curable Composition>

All components shown in Tables 6 and 7 other than filler (E) were mixed by using a mix rotor VMRC-5 under the condition of 100 rpm for 48 hours to prepare a binder resin. Then, the binder resin and filler (E) were put into a rotation and revolution mixer (ARV-300), mixed at 1400 rpm for 10 minutes, and then defoamed under vacuum. The one pack type dental curable composition shown in Table 6 was directly collected, and the two packs type dental curable composition shown in Table 7 was filled in a double syringe container manufactured by Mixpack Co., Ltd., to prepare a dental curable composition of the compositions R1 to R7 and the compositions S1 to S7. In the Tables 6 to 7, the content (parts by mass) of each component is indicated by the numerical value in parentheses after the abbreviation of each component.

The test method using each composition is as follows. For the two packs type dental composition of the compositions S1 to S7, a paste prepared by mixing the first paste and the second paste with a mixing chip manufactured by Mixpack Co., Ltd. was used.

<Storage Stability of Dental Adhesive Composition (Acceleration Test)>

In a dark room where the room temperature is 23±2° C., 5 mL of each composition was collected with a plastic dropper and filled in a black polypropylene bottle. Thereafter, the nozzle and cap were attached in order, and it was confirmed that the composition is not leak even if it is turned upside down. The bottle filled with the composition was stored in an incubator at 50° C. for 3 months, and it was confirmed that no significant increase in viscosity or gelation occurred.

[Adhesive Strength to Enamel] <Adhesion Test 1>

A test specimen of an epoxy resin embedded bovine central incisor was polished with water-resistant abrasive paper #600 to carve out an enamel plane. Thereafter, a tape (thickness 20 μm) with a hole having a diameter of 4 mm was affixed to the adherend surface to prescribe an adhesion area. The composition was applied into the tape with the hole and immediately air dried. For the two packs type dental adhesive composition, the same weight were weighed before application, sufficiently mixed, and thereafter applied and then immediately air-dried. Light irradiation was performed for 5 seconds with the dental polymerization LED light irradiator (PEN Bright, SHOFU INC.). Aplastic mold with a hole having 2 mm of the height and 4 mm of diameter was overlaid the tape with the hole, and the dental composite resin (BEAUTIFIL Flow Plus A3: SHOFU INC.) or the dental curable composition shown in Table 3 was filled. Thereafter, the light was irradiated for 10 seconds by the dental polymerization LED light irradiator (PEN Bright, SHOFU INC.). After immersing in water at 37° C. for 24 hours, immersing both in cold water phase at 4° C. for 60 seconds and in high temperature phase at 60° C. for 60 seconds was repeated 5000 times by using a thermal shock tester (manufactured by THOMAS KAGAKU Co., Ltd). The specimen was taken out and an Instron universal tester (manufactured by Instron) was used to measure the shear adhesive strength at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Evaluation criteria were as follows.

Particularly good: adhesive strength was 20 MPa or more. Good: adhesive strength was 12 MPa or more and less than 20 MPa. Applicable: adhesive strength was 5 MPa or more and less than 12 MPa. Insufficient: adhesive strength was less than 5 MPa.

In the test in which the dental curable composition of the compositions R1 to R7 were combined with, immersing both in cold water phase at 4° C. for 60 seconds and in high temperature phase at 60° C. for 60 seconds was repeated 20000 times by using a thermal shock tester (manufactured by THOMAS KAGAKU Co., Ltd). The specimen was taken out and an Instron universal tester (manufactured by Instron) was used to measure the adhesive strength at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Evaluation criteria were as follows.

Extremely good: adhesive strength was 28 MPa or more. Particularly good: adhesive strength was 20 MPa or more and less than 28 MPa. Good: adhesive strength was 12 MPa or more and less than 20 MPa. Applicable: adhesive strength was 5 MPa or more and less than 12 MPa. Insufficient: adhesive strength was less than 5 MPa.

<Adhesion Test 2>

A test specimen of an epoxy resin embedded bovine central incisor was polished with water-resistant abrasive paper #600 to carve out an enamel plane. Thereafter, a tape (thickness 20 μm) with a hole having a diameter of 4 mm was affixed to the adherend surface to prescribe an adhesion area. The composition was applied into the tape with the hole and immediately air dried. For the two packs type dental adhesive composition, the same weight were weighed before application, sufficiently mixed, and thereafter applied and then immediately air-dried. The adherend surface of the stainless rod (φ4.5 mm) was sandblasted (0.2 MPa, 1 second) with alumina (50 μm), then was washed with water and dried, and applied with a metal adhesive primer (METAL LINK, SHOFU INC.). The adherend surface of the stainless rod was applied with appropriate amount of resin cement (Resicem, SHOFU INC.) or a kneaded material of the dental curable composition shown in Table 4, and a tooth substance and the stainless rod were bonded so as to fit in the frame of the double-sided tape with a hole. A load of 200 N was applied from the vertical direction of the stainless rod, and excess cement was wiped off with a cloth. Thereafter, Light irradiation was performed for 10 seconds with the dental polymerization LED light irradiator (PEN Bright, SHOFU INC.). After removing the load, the prepared adhesive test piece was immersed in water at 37° C. for 24 hours, immersing both in cold water phase at 4° C. for 60 seconds and in high temperature phase at 60° C. for 60 seconds was repeated 5000 times by using a thermal shock tester (manufactured by THOMAS KAGAKU Co., Ltd). The specimen was taken out and an Instron universal tester (manufactured by Instron) was used to measure the shear adhesive strength at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Evaluation criteria were as follows.

Particularly good: adhesive strength was 20 MPa or more. Good: adhesive strength was 12 MPa or more and less than 20 MPa. Applicable: adhesive strength was 5 MPa or more and less than 12 MPa. Insufficient: adhesive strength was less than 5 MPa.

In the test in which the dental curable composition of the compositions S1 to S7 were combined with, immersing both in cold water phase at 4° C. for 60 seconds and in high temperature phase at 60° C. for 60 seconds was repeated 20000 times by using a thermal shock tester (manufactured by THOMAS KAGAKU Co., Ltd). The specimen was taken out and an Instron universal tester (manufactured by Instron) was used to measure the adhesive strength at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Evaluation criteria were as follows.

Extremely good: adhesive strength was 28 MPa or more. Particularly good: adhesive strength was 20 MPa or more and less than 28 MPa. Good: adhesive strength was 12 MPa or more and less than 20 MPa. Applicable: adhesive strength was 5 MPa or more and less than 12 MPa. Insufficient: adhesive strength was less than 5 MPa.

When the adhesive strength is low, the risk of detachment of the filler used in filling and repairing and the prosthetic device, marginal leakage and secondary caries and the like increases, therefore the adhesive strength is preferably high.

[Adhesive Strength to Dentin] <Adhesion Test 1>

A test specimen of an epoxy resin embedded bovine central incisor was polished with water-resistant abrasive paper #600 to carve out a dentin plane. Thereafter, a tape (thickness 20 μm) with a hole having a diameter of 4 mm was affixed to the adherend surface to prescribe an adhesion area. The composition was applied into the tape with the hole and immediately air dried. For the two packs type dental adhesive composition, the same weight were weighed before application, sufficiently mixed, and thereafter applied and then immediately air-dried. Light irradiation was performed for 5 seconds with the dental polymerization LED light irradiator (PEN Bright, SHOFU INC.).

The compositions P1 to P47 showed good adhesive property and maintenance rate. Among them, it was confirmed that Examples P1, P7 to P17, P23, P24, P26, P27, P31 to 40, and P42 to 47 had both high adhesive strength and extremely high maintenance rate.

On the other hand, since the compositions CP1 and CP2 did not contain an amine compound, the adhesive strength after storage was significantly reduced. Since the composition CP3 did not contain the (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group, it was confirmed that the adhesive strength was hardly exhibited. Although the compositions CP4 to CP13 contained an amine compound, since the structure of the amine compound differed from the structure represented by the formula (1), the adhesive strength after storage is remarkably reduced. Based on the above, it is presumed that when the (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group and the (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound coexist and the compounded amount thereof are appropriate, adhesive property is high and the property is maintained.

The compositions Q1 to Q40 showed good adhesive property and maintenance rate. Among them, it was confirmed that Examples Q7 to 17, Q26, Q27 and Q31 to 40 had both high adhesive strength and extremely high maintenance rate.

On the other hand, since the composition CQ1 did not contain an amine compound, the adhesive strength after storage was significantly reduced. Since the composition CQ2 did not contain the (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group, it was confirmed that the adhesive strength was hardly exhibited. The composition of Composition CQ3 showed good adhesive property, but its maintenance rate was low. Although it contains an amine compound, it is considered to be derived from the fact that the amine compound is an aromatic amine. The composition CQ4 showed good adhesive property by containing a photoacid generator, but the adhesive strength after storage was significantly reduced. It was confirmed that good adhesive strength and its maintenance rate were exhibited in the test of composition Q in the same manner as in the adhesion test 1 in which after applying each composition, air drying was performed, and then light irradiation was performed for 5 seconds with the dental polymerization LED light irradiator (PEN Bright, SHOFU INC.).

Examples R1 to R5, R8 to R12 and R15 to R19 showed good adhesive property and maintenance rate. Among them, Examples R1 to R5 and R15 to R19 showed extremely high adhesive property, and a synergistic effect exhibited by containing (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group and (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound represented by formula (1) in the dental adhesive composition and containing a photoacid generator in the curable composition was confirmed. Although the adhesive strength of Examples R6 and R7 was reduced after storage, it is presumed that it was derived from the fact that it does not contain (C) photoacid generator. In Comparative Examples CR1 to CR7 which were a combination with the composition CP3, since CP3 did not contain (A-1) polymerizable monomer having an acidic group, it was confirmed that the adhesive strength was hardly exhibited. It was confirmed that in Comparative Examples CR8 to CR21 containing the composition CP5 or CP11, adhesive strength after storage was low and maintenance rate was reduced. Since the adhesive composition contained only the (D-1) aliphatic tertiary amine compound represented by formula (1), like other compositions, it is presumed that the adhesive strength decreased after storage.
